Abstract
A method for controlling flash memory is described. The method includes selecting a new forward error correction (FEC) parameter set that provides more redundancy than a current FEC parameter set. The method also includes coding source information bits, using the new FEC parameter set, during write operations to a first corrupted page in the flash memory. The method further includes mapping the first corrupted page and at least one additional corrupted page in the flash memory to a single logical page with an expected page size.
